It won't be W's 3rd term, it will be Cheney's 1st, if McCain wins. |

War Lord McCain is showing that his world view is pure Cheneyism without any restraint that Poppy's loyalists were able to work on doofus. When McCain says that he knows how to win wars, he is opening a window on a mentality shaped by the loss in Vietnam that is itching for a rematch. Where W has been led into multiple debacles by his laziness and avid pro war proponents, McCain's lust for conflict comes from who he really is. This Georgian episode has shown a bright light on how belligerent this man is. I pray that the American people recoil from the macho, chip on the shoulder nonsense that this guy exudes. The John Wayne swagger that W puts on is an affectation. The psychological swagger that impels McCain is all too real.

I've been trying to make this point. chimpy set the table, grabbed the powers and will be handing it over to the next Pres.
McKane would be leagues worse than chimpy because he would hit the ground running. He wouldn't have to retread the Constitution, just run with it.

empire. When you combine the competition for oil, the exaggerated fear of external enemies with the Bush dismantling of the Constitution, you have a recipe for the rise of a proto-fascist state. You said it right. Bush/Cheney set the table and McCain will complete the deal.
